"The recent report on Blantyre House, a small resettlement jail near Goudhurst in Kent - 'An exceptional prison,' says Owers. She adds that it is 'a beacon from which similar prisons would do well to learn,' and a 'remarkable establishment'. The pity is that there are so few resettlement prisons. Only three - of 126 - are dedicated solely to the task of getting male prisoners into outside work, all three being semi-open jails. In addition, there are eight open prisons in England and Wales, and most of them operate a "working out" scheme in one form or other."
